OK, I am stepping into the twilight zone here and haven't a clue. My riding buddy just got a YZ250F and I rode it. I shouldn't have done it.
I would like to get a good understanding of the performance differences between the WR and the YZ as it would relate to my riding - pokey, southeastern woods riding with copious amounts of single track.
I absolutely love the YZ motor and understand you can equip a WR w/a YZ cam. Are there good woods suspension solutions for the YZ? Is the WR valving different? Is the 20 lb difference between the two noticeable? The carburator looked scary. Is jetting a challenge? The YZ was easy to start except when it was dumped once, and then another time when it was stalled during a creek crossing. I am wondering if even the e-start on a WR would have helped in those situations (my 2-stroke just needs one kick most of the time maybe two). Are the 4-strokes more or less prone to stall during the tight woods sections?
I don't need lights. I don't think I need the magic button but want to here your testimonies to see if its is worth the 20 lbs extra. I need plush suspenders and maybe a bigger tank (25 to 35 mi between fillups for enduros).
Thanks for your comments.
